Indian Tech Employees Raise Concerns Over Extended Work Hours and Meeting SchedulesPreviousNext

Two Indian tech employees have raised concerns about workplace expectations affecting their personal time. One fresher from Hyderabad shared a dispute with a senior after logging off following a 12-hour shift, highlighting pressures to remain available beyond work hours. Separately, a Bengaluru employee questioned the scheduling of late-evening meetings to accommodate US colleagues, suggesting rotating meeting times to balance time-zone differences.
